My audible files have no sound

Somehow I lost the ability for my audible files to play sound. I noticed it first after buring a audiobook and in my car the cd's were silent. I went back to my computer and noticed that when they burned the files to the CD the file size for each chapter was 1KB. So nothing got burned over.
I then tried to play the audiobooks in iTunes. No sound plays on any of the files. Now if I go to my Audible Manager it plays the files fine - with sound.
I'm pretty sure I just updated a version of iTunes and i think that's what screwed it up, but I am not sure. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes to no avail. All my audible files are still silent.
Anyone have any help? thanks!

Here is the Audible response I received.
=============================
Thank you for contacting us at Audible again. I understand that you have encountered some difficulties while attempting to play your Audible titles within iTunes. We are currently aware of an issue with the latest version of iTunes (Version 10.5) for PC which breaks the playback of Audible Format 4 titles. As you may be experiencing, the titles will look like they are playing normally within iTunes, but they do not have any sound or the sound is distorted. While we are diligently working to resolving this issue, you will still be able to play your titles via iTunes -as long as you use one of other 3 formats (Format 2, 3, or Enhanced). All you will need to do is re-download your Audible purchases in any of these formats, and you shouldn't have any problems with the playback.
I have forwarded your email address to our Technical Team. When this issue is corrected, we will provide you with an update. To re-download your Audible title in a different format, please reference the following steps:
1. Go to the "My Library" section of the website: http://www.audible.com/lib
2. From here, locate the title you wish to download.
3. To the right of the title, locate the "File Size/Audio Format" label and please click "Change".
4. A drop down menu will become accessible. Please select the down arrow and choose the desired format you wish to download the title in.
5. Please click on “Download It” and it will download in the new format.
Remember, there is no additional charge for this download and you can download your books as many times as you would like. I apologize for any inconvenience that you may have encountered and if you have any further questions, please feel free to let me know.

  • VOB Files have no sound in final cut pro and prism

    2 things:
    1) when I import a VOB file (from dvd) into FCP it doesn't have sound when I edit or when I export
    2) In the software prism I tried to convert VOB files into MOV files and it only exported as video without sound.
    Does anyone have suggestions please?

  • My video files have no sound anymore since I upgraded to QuickTime 7.4

    Hi,
    I have upgraded to Quicktime 7.4.1 (v14), my video files play no song anymore. I have check the audio/midi config and it is correct. Furthermore VLC is working fine, so my loud speakers are working properly.
    How can I do to solve the problem?
    Please check my config before replying and only reply if you are 1000% sure of your solution.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    These are the downloads and the settings you need in order to view/hear pretty much everything that the net can throw at you: The setup described below has proved repeatedly successful on both PPC and Intel macs, but nothing in life carries a guarantee!
    It is known to work in the great majority of cases with Safari 3.0.4, 3.1, QT 7.3 or 7.4 and OS 10.4.11. (If you are running Leopard, ensure that all plug-ins have been updated for OS 10.5.2, but please see my footnote).
    Assuming you already run Tiger versions OS 10.4.11 or above (this has not yet been verified with Leopard) and have Quicktime 7.2 or above, and are using Safari 2 or 3, download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
    RealPlayer 10 for Mac from http://forms.real.com/real/player/blackjack.html?platform2=Mac%20OS%20X&product= RealPlayer%2010&proc=g3&lang=&show_list=0&src=macjack
    The new RealPlayer Plus (v.11) is still in beta and therefore free, but works well on both Tiger and Leopard. It includes a download function, and you can get that here:
    http://uk.real.com/player/mac/
    Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/wmcomponents.mspx (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
    Perian from http://perian.org/
    You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs.
    Adobe FlashPlayer should first be uninstalled using the appropriate uninstaller available here: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14157&sliceId=2 and then the latest version obtained from here: http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1ProdVersion=ShockwaveFlash and installed.
    (You can check here: http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/about/ to see which version you should install for your Mac and OS, but please see my footnote if you are running Leopard.)
    In earlier versions than QT 7.1.3 in Quicktime Preferences, under advanced, UNcheck Enable Flash, and under Mime settings/Miscellananeous only check Quicktime HTML (QHTM).
    You should also ensure, if you are running Tiger 10.4.11 or Leopard, that you have downloaded and installed all the correct version for your Mac of Security Updates up to and including 2008-002. (N.B. Security Updates require both a restart and a permission repair.)
    In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them). However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/divx/mac/
    Now go to Safari Preferences/Security, and tick the boxes under Web Content (all 4 of them) to enable Java.
    Lastly open Audio Midi Setup (which you will find in the Utilities Folder of your Applications Folder) and click on Audio Devices. Make sure that both Audio Input and Audio Output, under Format, are set to 44100 Hz, and that you have selected 'Built in Audio'.
    Important: Now repair permissions and restart.
    You should also consider having the free VLC Player from http://www.videolan.org/ in your armory, as this plays almost anything that DVD Player might not.
    There is an additional 'fix' you could try if you are having problems with Flash and Quicktime, depending on which type of Mac you have:
    On Intel Macs, make sure that you are not running Safari in Rosetta. You can check this, and change it, in the Get Info window.
    On PPC Macs, go to the Hard Disk/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, and drag the file 'QuickTime Plugin.webplugin' to the desktop. Quit and restart Safari. If things have improved you can trash that file. If they haven't put it back, as the lack of this plug-in can cause QT content in some widgets to cease functioning.
    And now there is an additional kid on the block: SilverLight. Microsoft has created their own version of what a replacement for Flash should be. You can read more about it here:
    http://silverlight.net/
    So, if you go to any sites that have been designed for this new Silverlight stuff, you can download the plug-in from here (but make certain that you are downloading SilverLight v.1.0 for OS X (10.4.8 upwards):
    http://silverlight.net/GetStarted/
    FOOTNOTE
    If you are running Leopard:
    Some users have mentioned that the latest Flash Player (v.9.0.115.0) conflicts with Leopard, and that they have needed to revert to v. 9.0.47. This can be downloaded from here:
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14266&sliceId=1

  • Some of my WMA files have poor sound quality when transferred to my

    I just got the 60 GB Zen and have been busy loading it up with my music. I have all my CDs ripped onto my computer in WMA format and have been transferring them to the MP3 player. The strange thing is that some of the CDs transferred with very poor quality and others are fine. They all sound great when played off the computer. There is no pattern to which ones sound scratchy and slow (some were ripped from actual CDs and others were burned copies). Has anyone else experienced this? What can I do to fix it's Thanks for your help.

    I think all of the CDs were accidentally ripped with the protections on. I will try again without and see if that fizes anything. I will let you know how it works out.

  • Everytime I install iTunes 10.7 and then reboot, I have no sound at all.

    Scenario:
    I install iTunes 10.7 and everything works great.  Until I shut down my computer.  When I turn my computer back on, there is no sound at all. No startup chimes from Windows 7, none of my music or video files have any sound.  If I open iTunes and start playing a song, there is no sound, but also the song doesn't even start playing.
    When this happened the first time, I tried everything I could to try and get sound back.  I installed the newest versions of my sound drivers and also for the chipsets on the mb, and even the video card. Everything is up to date already. I tried unplugging all of the cables and plugging them back in.  Nothing worked.
    So I did a system restore to the only restore point available which was a couple of days before.  Voila.  Success.  Everything is hunky dory.  Oops, no iTunes.  I'll just go reinstall that. Alrighty, now we're cooking.  Time for bed, I'll just shut this down.  Next morning...no sound again. I have repeated this process 4 times all weekend, trying to work out why it is happening and on the most recent one, the only thing I reinstalled was iTunes. And then I immediately rebooted.  No sound.  It would seem that iTunes is the culprit.
    On the most recent attempt I made, there is strangely no restore point available that is not corrupted.  I no longer have a process with which to reverse it.
    Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try in order to resolve this more permenantly?

    Best post this in the MacPro forum.
    Have fun.

  • Adobe Media Encoder CS4 converted FLV files have sound but no picture

    Hi,
    It would be great if anyone can help - I am using the latest trial version of Flash CS4. I have used the Media Encoder to convert mpg4 files to FLV however the resultant files play with sound but no picture - just a black screen. Is there a solution to this issue?

    mostly this problem is caused by lacking of
    some nessery codec. Which means when reencoding your video to flv, it can not generate the video.
    Does Riva FLV encoder needs any extra codec? I am using Moyea Flash Video MX 6. It do not need any extra code. It needs in the former versions but in version 6 it can convert nearly any video format now.

  • Flac files converted to alac have muddy sounding bass?

    I'm a noob audiophile and I was wondering why it is that when I convert a file from flac to alac that the bass sounds so muddy. At first I thought that perhaps it was because I was mainly using the built in speakers on my MBP and that they couldn't handle too much bass. I tried switching speakers, headphones and earphones and nothing solved the problem. Then I played the original flac file using the songbird media player (it has bit-perfect playback) and I noticed that the flac files sounded much better and had none of the muddyness in the bass that the alac files have. I've read on some forums that an iTunes plug in of some sort might solve the problem but I've not been able to find anything that pertains to solving my problem. If anyone could either explain to me why it is that this happens and/or suggest a solution so that I don't have to use two differnt media players (I'd prefer to stick with iTunes but it doesn't have native flac compatibility) I'd be most appreciative. I have tried using Fluke but didn't like it since I have to open iTunes in 32 bit mode to use it and it seems to make iTunes lag when navigating through songs.

    Andar,
    The plug-in you probably heard about is Xiph.  It is far from trouble-free, but you can check it out here.
    It is possible that whatever you are using for conversion is soing something not quite right.
    I assume you have verified that native ALAC files (ripped directly from CD to ALAC, or purchased in ALAC format) do not have this problem, and it only applies to ones that were converted from FLAC?

  • I can get sound for files ON my laptop but have no sound when I try to watch Hulu  or use other web-based  programs

    My MacBook Pro has sound for files housed on my laptop (ITunes for example) but if I try to watch a web-based program like Hulu or Khan Academy there is no sound.  How can I fix this?  I was using wireless headphones a few days ago and it all worked fine but then the sound stopped on both the headphones and the computer.  The video portion works fine, I just don't have any sound.  I threw away the headphones and deleted them from the Bluetooth on the Macbook Pro but still I have no sound.  Any ideas?

    1. System Preferences > Other/ Flash Player > Advanced >  Delete  All
         Press the "Delete All" button
      2. Install Adobe Flash Player.
        http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
       Download it first.
       The next step is important.
       Click Safari in the menubar and select “Quit Safari”.
        Follow the prompts and install it.
        Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
    2.  Allow  Plug-ins  
        Safari > Preferences > Security

      I have a problem with the headset of my ipod nano 4th gen. the right side don't have a sound. It comes in and out.  what do I need to do.. I am using the original headset eversince. I tool it to a Apple Mac Cennter and Taked with a Service Center Rep. And he told me that they can't do anything because they don't repair the ipod they didn;t even look at it. I was told instead to buy a new one. I was very disappointed.. This is already my 5th ipod though i am planning to buy a new one.. I still want it fixed so I can give it to my little sister

    From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
    They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

  • IPod shuffle and problem with Audible files

    I just fought for about 8 hours with my new Shuffle because it would not play my Audible files even though I read everything available about how to do it correctly and I updated/reset/upgraded/reinstalled/redid everything repeatedly and was about to send it back for an exchange.
    Whenever I tried to play an Audible file, the Shuffle would just die and then the (newly charged) battery would instantly drain to nothing and I'd have to recharge it before trying it all again. (I was NOT trying to play the files in shuffle mode, and I was NOT trying to play Audible type 1 files, so this was not the problem. Also, the Audible files played just fine in iTunes.)
    The problem was that I had downloaded the audiobook files from Audible when I bought them, and then had stored them on a CD. Then, when it was time to put the files on the Shuffle, I just pulled them off the CD back into iTunes. I did this, of course, because I didn't want those large audiobook files stored on my hard drive.
    I eventually tried downloading FRESH FILES from Audible, instead of using the files I had stored on CD. The Shuffle was able to play these FRESH, NEWLY DOWNLOADED FILES from Audible.
    Seems like there'd be some mention of this somewhere in all of the troubleshooting guides I've been through. What a pain.

    Lawrence,
    Why don't you buy the audiobooks from Audible and then archive them until you want to download and listen to them. Then once you've listened you can delete them from your iTunes Library and no hard disk space is needlessly occupied on your machine. And, if you want the book again in the future, just download it again -- the download time is probably considerably less than the time you take burning CDs, plus you save the cost of the CDs, plus the "fresh" downloads work on your Shuffle and the CDs don't.

  • HT1349 After installing windows 8, I have no sound on my mac desktop. Need help?

    Hi,
    I recently installed Windows 8 and after the installation there is no audio (sound) in my iMac. I can't hear youtube videos, mp3 files, no nothing.
    Suggestions to solves this problem?

    As you sure that you don't have system sounds muted? If you have sound in the music app, then system sounds are muted.
    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.
